Bacon fried rice

I kept hearing talk of bacon fried rice on Twitter so I decided to concoct my own version: veggies, leftover rice, and bacon fried in bacon grease.

Bacon fried rice

Ingredients

Bacon grease (which I always have in the fridge)

Broccoli, chopped

Cooked bacon, chopped

Carrots (I shredded them because I like them tiny)

1 egg

Leftover rice

Sweet chile sauce

Instructions

Heat a couple tablespoons of bacon grease over medium heat in a skillet

Add in chopped up veggies and cook for a few minutes until they’re as tender as you like; I’m Southern so this was more like 10 minutes for me (you can also add a little water and put the lid on to steam them very tender)

Break egg into the pan and stir while it cooks up

Add in bacon and leftover rice, stirring and breaking up clumps. Stir and cook until rice is heated through and egg is cooked
